Golf Society
« on: November 09, 2005, 07:26:14 pm »
Hi All,

Hope I find you well.

Mark and I have already spoken with a few Club Arnage'rs in regard to a Team JPC Golf Society and have received interest from a number of them.

Is there anyone else out there that might be interested in attending/joining such a thing? It wont start until the weather gets a bit warmer. I just want to gauge the interest, if any.

Open to all.

Cheers

Gazza

Never have seriously intented a golf course, let alone play. Did some hockey early days, but that's too many moons ago. And then there's the North Sea to cross every time :-\

Gazza,

Is it likely the society would need at least one designated buggy driver?  If so I'm your man (so to speak).  Me and golf balls / clubs don't get on too well as those who've seen me attempt to hit a golf ball can vouch for but I'm sure I could cope with driving a buggy. 

I'm sure can see the benefit of having someone to look after you, your clubs and your beers (or is it strictly diet coke these days?) whilst you take part in a game.   ;D

Hi Doris,

Very kind of you to allocate yourself as the token "grown-up"  ;D

I'm sure that Diet Coke will be assigned to the archives for such an event!

Anyone else?

I would love to join up but I think the logistics of attending any rounds that you organise would end up being more testing than my swing.

One of these years, whilst at Le Mans, we should arrange a round on the course that is next to the track.

I have noticed that it is still open when the race is on?

Just a thought.

Having played a very bad round of the wretched game this morning, count me out!!

Actually I rather enjoy a game of golf (known locally as Thwack... f**k!) and so do the rest of Team Zarse, so some of us would be up for a round for sure. Guess we're talking about next year in the spring?
I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

Hi Andy,

Something like that.

We're gonna try and get it as central to as many people as we can so that we can get a good attendance. The idea being to get as many people having fun as possible.

I have nominated myself as handicap secretery and am happy to announce that I will be playing off 28  ;D

Should be good fun!
anyone else?

Gazza,

You seem to be confused.  Just because I said I would drive a golf buggy and look after clubs / beers does not mean I am in anyway going to act like a 'grown up'.  That's just wrong!  ;D
